I am excited! Yet another title defense in YOUNGSTOWN, OHIO! Great publicity for the city and Youngstown State as well.The arena seats 6500 for basketball. It, believe it or not, is a little larger than the Covelli Centre in Downtown!

You're excited that the fight is in Youngstown, I hope that's the only reason you're excited for this fight.I understand the health concerns, but 2 weeks after the date he was supposed to fight Williams?Only a 6 week training camp for a guy who almost died a few weeks back?

Right. Those articles all came out after Williams camp said they wouldn't wait around any longer for The Ghost.Way to step up and take on a contender Kelly. The clown he is fighting was on The Contender so that does count right?Let's see if the fight ever happens with Williams.

I understand the inactivity part with all the shit he went thru, I really do.But 2 weeks after the 2nd fight with Williams was supposed to be? Right after Williams signed a contract to fight someone else? Why rush back if he almost died or was messed up bad which I am not questioning.The timing looks a little questionable to me.Williams had to take a fight when Pavlik cancelled twice but if Kelly was good to go say early January, they probably could have held out.

I wanted to see Williams vs Pavlik, now who knows if/when it goes down.

No slack here.Williams will punish him and I can't wait.....hopefully we get to see it.I know it's a tune up fight and that's the problem I have with it.Top fighters, champions, shouldn't be taking tune up fights.We thought he was going to fight another top 10 guy, now this?Pretty much a letdown, you disagree?I know it's different because of the medical issues, but still a huge letdown.

No. I had him #3 on my lb for lb list. Before the Martinez fight. And to me, Williams at 147, 154 even ... different fighter than Williams at 160, where he'll be unable to hurt anyone. Those weak swinging side of the glove punches are not going to hurt any middle worth anything. And Williams gets hit too much himself to compete with a middle with Kelly's punching power.

Pavlik beats his ass at 160. You know it too.

Williams needs a Pavlik fight more than Pavlik needs a Williams fight. Even his thug handlers aren't stupid enough not to see that. Kelly has the middleweight belts. Kelly draws better. Kelly draws more viewers. Bottom line, he has more options. He brings more money to the table than Slappy Paul.

Williams is also very proud. Its why Kelly and Arum are calling him out so aggressively. They know they will eventually be able to taunt Williams into the fight, and that Kelly will knock his ass out. Maybe not as quickly as the 144 lb Carlos Quintana knocked him out ... by by round seven at the latest.

Please make this fight happen. My winnings off the Fight Dr will cover the cost of the PPV, the food, and the beer.
